Given the current socio-economic challenges in South Africa, including the pressing need for community support and upliftment, we believe we all play a vital role in making a difference in strengthening our community through compassionate support.
At the Hartbeespoort office we collect donations of foodstuffs, toiletries, clothing, furniture and any donations that can be used to assist others in need.
Weekly food parcels are given out from the donations received as well as assisting people with household items, so nothing goes to waste.
So if you decide to declutter your home please keep us in mind, there Is always someone that can make good use of your donation. With your help, we can continue to make a significant impact in our community.
Helping others is not just about meeting their immediate needs, we need to seek ways to equip them to handle future challenges. Whether through teaching, mentoring, or providing resources, empowerment helps others become self-sufficient.
Everyone can benefit from a little help from time to time, but there are some people who need help more than others.
Let us commit to making a difference in the world around us, knowing that even the smallest acts of kindness can have eternal significance.
In 2016 we were contacted by Mr X, a pensioner from Rustenburg. He offered to donate an uninhabited farm to In His Honour Outreach Foundation with the plan that In His Honour Outreach Foundation would turn it into a kibbutz to assist persons with no place to go, a stepping stone, giving them a second chance in life, firstly to find themselves and then to become part of the building up of the farm, so that it could become self-sustainable.
This farm is where we house Military Veterans that have no place to stay and where we plan on hosting our next "Work for Jesus" Children's camp for underprivileged children instead of utilizing our facility at Hartbeespoort.
It is important to mention that In His Honour Outreach Foundation is a fully registered Section 21 company (non profit company); it therefore goes without saying that, although the aim with the farm is to become self-sustained /self-supporting and incoming generating, the idea of the farm becoming "Profit driven" is not part of the long term planning - funds generated will be ploughed back into the farm's expansion.
The farm will also be used for "Work for Jesus" children's camps which are held regularly for the children that cannot afford to go on camps with schools and other groups. The camps are usually held at Schoemansville Resort in Hartbeespoort and now we will be able to alternate hosting them on the farm as well.
His Honour Outreach Foundation is not state subsidised and depends totally on donations to be able to assist others in need. Due to economic pressure that we are experiencing in the country at the moment, we have found that there has been an increase in people in need and a decrease in those that are able to assist.
We host fundraisers and to generate funds but have found that there is also a decrease in income from these events due to the economics once again and have come to the realization that we need to form another form of income so as to try and sustain our people.
We unfortunately need the assistance of trained persons to assist us with our Projects and this requires us paying for their services, not every person can afford their time to help us and not receive an income.
We are entirely dependent on sponsorships and we are not state assisted. Due to the fact that we are a registered PBO we are able to issue you with an 18A certificate which is claimable from tax.
Here is information regarding the certificate and how companies can benefit and maximise their tax savings.
A taxpayer making a bona fi de donation in cash or of property made in kind to a section 18A approved organisation, is entitled to a deduction from his taxable income if the donation is supported by the necessary receipt issued by the organisation; and does not exceed 10% of the taxable income (excluding any retirement fund lump sum benefit) of the taxpayer, calculated before allowing any deduction under section 18A or any deduction for medical and dental expenses.
The donation must actually be paid or transferred during the year of assessment. The donation must be made directly to the organisation which has been approved in terms of section 18A.
Having met the requirements, and with the necessary 18A certificate in hand, the taxpayer must then claim the deduction on their tax return. The original certificate must be kept in a safe place and made available to SARS if requested.
